The Single Payment Scheme (SPS) was introduced in 2005 and replaced the previous forms of agricultural subsidy.
We attend many professional briefing events and are members of the Welsh Assembly Government Agricultural Partnership both of which have provided us a greater understanding of the scheme.
Entitlements can be sold with or without land. Entitlements can only be leased with an equivalent area of eligible land.
We are dealing with many of the complex issues caused by the introduction of the Single Payment Scheme on a daily basis and can provide advice on all matters relating to it.
Kathryn Perkins holds a position on a working group of the Central Association of Agricultural Valuers, which is considering the impact of the proposed change from the historic basis of SFP to the proposed form of area payment. Please contact her for further information.
